Scrap Friends Sketch #22 - Shaka!

Is January already over? Need to fix that fast forward button on time! Wish we could slow down just a little bit....

Well on todays page, I'm sharing a photo that's a blast from my past. My oldest who is now 7 is throwing a 'shaka' sign at a luau with her little 2 and a half year old self!

And I'm using the totally awesome sketch #22 from Scrap Friends!

The bold hand painted script seems to be showing up everywhere and I love it! So I thought I'd have a go at the title. I know I need a more practice but I will certainly be trying this out some more.

What do you think about my funny little tiki head? It's from the font Tropicana BV. I enjoy finding cool dingbats and cutting them out on my Cameo. In fact, I probably have a mild font/dingbat addiction......

And really, I totally dig my little UmWowStudio chevron arrows, I think I would put them on all my pages if I could!

I hope you all get a chance to get creative this weekend and maybe even get inspired from the sketch! Aloha!

Miae, such a cool, breezy, and fun layout! I think you have the watercolor lettering down! I was wondering if you are using a calligraphy brush like those found in Japan. I've thought of trying my hand at this myself. Love the little tiki face and you rocked the UWS.

This is SO FUN Miae! Love the layered plastic ?? behind the photo and the fun scribbling on the page- what I REALLY love is that Tiki mask- one of these days I'll get a new computer and finally get to use my silhouette (that I got Christmas 2012- yiiikes) This page is stunning!
